Which object is known for reflecting light?

• A. Stone
• B. Mirror
• C. Wood
• D. Fabric

Answer: (B)

Light reflects most clearly from smooth, polished surfaces. A mirror has a very smooth surface that bounces nearly all the light that hits it, so you can see a clear reflection of yourself or the room. Stone, wood, and fabric can reflect some light, but their surfaces are not as smooth and they tend to absorb or scatter light, so they don’t produce the same sharp reflection. Reflection happens when light bounces off a surface, and the mirror is designed to bounce light in a predictable way to form a visible image.
